Roads to Health: Infrastructure and Urban Wellbeing in Later Medieval Italy - The Middle Ages Series
G. Geltner
Reconstructing the mandates and activities of urban "healthscapers" between roughly 1250 and 1500, Roads to Health contends that preventive healthcare emerged from a steady concern for populations' wellbeing. It challenges the view of the Black Death, let alone the Industrial Revolution, as a unique trigger in public health history.
